Yesterday afternoon I received a call on my mobile at work regarding the tacho i have for sale. The caller told me that he got my number off calaisturbo. I told him to call me back later and he did, i gave him my address details and he rocked up later that night. I brought the tacho into the garage and then he asked me about the TV DVD in dash that i was also selling so i said id go and grab it. Next thing i see is that he is leaving on his pushbike so i fly down the stairs and michael shumachered it up my street. I grabbed him by the backpack, ripped the backpack off him and he fell off his bike. He then proceeded to Asafa Powell it all the way home or to the train station without his bike or backpack and i ended up with my tacho back, a new bike and backpack. If your reading this here i hope you enjoyed the run home and thank you for the new bike i road it to work today kills walking. PS bike will be posted FS soon but its great riding to work.
